7:03 pm
a point of contention for those who come for signs and eyes the verdict on twenty one defended soldiers was told i am a sentence to death so today they came on the streets against the government against the biting very angry scenes and a fisherman been gathering shot xandra have all said johnstown but at the moment the focus is definitely here in the capital with these chaotic and violent street hospitals. activists and journalists who can't chandan things the effects of the ongoing unrest in egypt could destroy not just the country's stability but its economy too. egypt has been totally destabilized and remember the egyptian government is waiting for what the egyptians call the loan from sunday look there's a protest is a popular protest song about the world bank i.m.f. loan to egypt and all the western newspapers and analysts are saying well egypt's not going to get that loan if this is the destabilisation by its visiting upon the country but the thing is who can control things in egypt now now
7:04 pm
a popular slogan of the arab spring has been the fear has gone but perhaps the fear has gone by along with the fia so has any sense of security and nation building and state building so really can anyone control what's going on and this is this is rooted partly as well because of the trial against those who accused of being guilty author of the of the the deaths at the football match so really it's also it's also you know openly said that nor can control anything in egypt are currently france declares it's one the initial offensive against islamist in mali and later this hour an exclusive account of it with some chilling details about the plight of civilians caught in the crossfire. but first washington sanctions on the sale of iranian oil may have been violated by none other than the u.s. military is according to the u.s. special inspector general for afghan reconstruction the pentagon's admitted it can't account for some of the fuel it brought in as part of it may have been resold
7:05 pm
by turkmenistan or he's got it she has more from washington. the u.s. gives money to the afghan government to buy fuel for its forces now u.s. officials the special inspector general for afghanistan reconstruction say they cannot verify that the fuel purchased for afghan security forces in recent years did not come from iran it could be their way of saying that it most probably did covering iraq and it could mean that the u.s. has violated its own sanctions thereby letting us taxpayer dollars go to remain coffers those sanctions that the u.s. has put in place not only for u.s. companies from doing business with iran but also punish third party countries for doing business with iran but no matter how many rounds of sanctions are in effect they were never watertight even though the european union under a lot of pressure from washington stopped buying uranium oil you have a host of other countries that still do iran's biggest buyer now biggest buyers now are china india and japan and these countries are oil thirsty especially
7:06 pm
china so china up its imports of uranium oil india's imports of iranian crude were up thirty percent according to tanker arrival data western sanctions have it rains oil exports in two thousand and twelve leading to a very deep plunge in the iranian currency but continuous robust the ban from its top buyers as well as the purchase of new tankers allowed the way in to unexpectedly boost exports late last year despite the sanctions the u.s. can't absolutely force those major economies especially china to stop buying from iran political and economic ramifications of such pressure would be significant but the u.s. government is trying their prompting those other countries to buy oil from washington's allies saudis and katori so you could imagine how happy the gulf states are about this whole new business coming in but washington is resolute to put more pressure on other countries to put forward more threats like cutting them off from the u.s.
7:07 pm
banking system. so to many countries the situation starts to look more like blackmail than anything else and was regards to iran and blackmail is essentially what the us calls diplomacy which by the way is not working but washington acts to hold not only ran hostage to the sanctions but the whole world which is of course creating more tension a move for those stars but lost at sea there's been a rare failure for russian u.s. satellite collaboration as a rocket carrying communications equipment did choose minutes after takeoff. but first a suicide bombers attacked the u.s. embassy in turkey's capital augur a killing a security guard authorities say the attacker who was reportedly a member of a left wing group detonated explosives as he passed through an x. ray scanner at the building's entrance or his policies we are. now according to
7:08 pm
eyewitnesses there was this massive bang also plumes of smoke that have been erupting outside of the american embassy all american embassy staff have been taken to safe rooms inside the embassy this blast did happen in a part of ankara where there are several other embassies including that of germany as well as all fronts the explosion caused no damage inside the embassy itself but it did cause extensive damage to the outside wall and they are a number of illegal groups ranging from kurdish separatists to lift just to islamic militants who have launched attacks in recent years in turkey you also have in addition to this violence from syria that continuously spills across the border and in the past artillery from syria has killed turkish civilians what that means is that you have a whole host of groups that could have carried out this attack back in september there was that notorious mission in benghazi in libya where we had four and then we can stop members killed including the american ambassador and then just
7:09 pm
a few days ago you had britain's foreign office warning of a potential threat against the british embassy in tripoli so what we are witnessing is a chain of events targeting western embassies not least of all the united states that seems to be picking up momentum and it is a reflection of the growing anger against washington and other western countries at the particularly unstable time in the region lawrence freeman for me executive intelligence review says washington's middle east policies may provoke such militant actions. environment that's being created and the amount of dangerous individuals that are spreading into this whole area from syria to turkey and back and forth that i've been on then supported and funded by obama in other countries the west trace of attention for all kinds of i think to these individuals to be active being you don't have to tell this per person to do this you just create the right environment provide the ammunition and the sons and certain etiologies take
7:10 pm
over so you have well armed well prepared trained terrorists on the border originally with turkey and syria probably now inside turkey and therefore it's the potential for a violent terrorist action needed against united states and we're right now putting ourselves in a very very bad position and allowing this to happen to the u.s. government if those shoals and facilities. will stay with us still to come this hour the internal conflict in syria turns international after israel's called out by damascus and opposition groups after launching an air strike on a convoy allegedly bringing weapons but in the syrian territory more on this after a break. please speak your language. programs and documentaries in arabic

thanks for staying with us eleven minutes past the hour now it may not be so great to be in britain that's the idea some in the u.k. want to promote to potential european migrants politicians are losing sleep over the potential influx of workers from some states are now free to live anywhere they want in the block parties polly boyko has more. as one official put it the negative ad campaign about britain would help to dispel the myth that the streets in the u.k. all paved with gold and the politicians certainly are worried and they've got it wrong in the past you see back in two thousand and four the previous labor government got it really wrong they got the figures so wrong about the number of poles that were coming over to potentially live in england they suggested that there would be something around fifteen thousand polish citizens coming over to the
7:13 pm
u.k. lo and behold less than a decade later the polish community in the u.k. is one of the biggest communities and polish is the second language spoken in england and wales the previous year was the year of the olympics and politicians trump and trumpeting great britain and how long john in britain is the best destination the world billions of pounds poured into advertising to really sell the u.k. but it seems that for immigrants potential immigrants from rumania and from bol garia the message is that britain isn't so great after all so a lot of people used to use that sort of as quite farcical the fact that the government is willing to trash its own image and to admit that there are problems with the economy in disarray that there's a housing crisis and that there are problems with schools and hospitals everyone's been having a good old chuckle over the idea of a negative ad campaign and yes some people have actually said that it's quite
7:14 pm
insulting but for remaining ians and for vogue ariens but one newspaper has even suggested that people send in their own suggestions for what an anti britain poster would look like and the result has been really quite scathing and quite harsh to britain as a country we've got slogans that include u.k. yuck and come to britain and clean the toilets or even britain we haven't left ourselves because the public transport isn't running so people very sort of mocking at the same time but quite so. scathing about the country and we will say it took to the streets of london to find out what ordinary london is think about the situation let's take a lesson as these but that's a this makes message isn't it because they end the day i think a waste of time and money and actually really these things are to be part of this was over there that really i have a job i'm not the same for me thirty but. at the moment leave here everything too
7:15 pm
much expense to westminster is bound by law so they have to follow these rules and they have to allow anybody who wishes to come in twenty fourteen to enter the country but a lot of citizens in the u.k. east as you saw that they feel that it's insulting to those people and of waste of money having advertised births and previously the shocking truth about the german catholic church later this hour our team that it's how it was possible greece accused of sexually abusing children to escape trial. but first french president francois long set to visit mali is friendships fighting islam is insurgents continue to make gains there to visit comes amid worsening sectarian violence in the country though sparking fears militants could resort to guerrilla tactics and terror attacks jervas say the three week long fighting has spread more havoc across the country and its civilians who are bearing the brunt of
7:16 pm
it journalist gonzalo want to exclusively brought us a story of one of the victims of the ongoing bloodshed. grosser they doubt what that says but the ellis the war became a real nightmare for the people of this small city in the say google region it was one of the first places bombed by french warplanes before more jihadists arrived sweeping south towards the capital by marco the french intervention left a pile of debris and ashes and that's just the visible traces of the war they left it civilians who were left with the scars that will last a lifetime one family paid a deep price for this conflict against the islamist terrorists one of the family sons was killed by a jihadist soldier inside his own home. one brother was attacked by a group of militants the ridge children among them he started running and got back into our house but they followed him one of the children fired at him but missed and then another insurgent shot him inside the house my brother fell and was
7:17 pm
riddled with bullets we laid his body in the house we couldn't bury him because we were afraid to go outside. just me this is just one example of the terror that the conflict is putting mali and civilians through plaguing the weakest the most no one was surprised when india bali once jihadist troops arrived it was discovered that the majority of the military were heavily armed child soldiers. strasberg based journalist an expert on friends robert hard eyes things alarms visitors just political grandstanding. he may regard this as a window of opportunity to present this is a great french excess which militarily technically tactically certainly looks like let's be honest but it sees an opportunity because clearly in the background there is considerable american assistance there are now british troops coming in eight thousand african troops it's not going to be further out i may say the french are very reluctant to approach the algerian front you know too closely because algeria
7:18 pm
and france as you know have a long history with that area because of the civil war i think this may well be the last chance on house to claim a victory before it all becomes obviously an allied operation and i think that's probably the main reason. remember there is more on the line including why one of president obama's relatives made to ported from the states the president's kenyan uncle has apparently been living illegally in the u.s. for decades he get preferential treatment find out more of our time dot com plus. allen in drag coming back to life but only for six days to commemorate the crucial role the city played in the downfall of the nazi is more on line. rocket carrying u.s. communications equipment crashed into the pacific just seconds after launch the

of part of a highway rescue workers are sifting through the rubble and survivors. serious blows to the reputation of the catholic church in germany have led to more and more worshippers turning their backs on the institution accusations of child abuse and sexual harassment levelled at priests who never see the inside of a courtroom are seen as the main reason for the dramatically shrinking congregations just a warning you may find some of the details in peter over his report disturbing. the abuse of trust the destruction of faith the theft of innocence. in one nine hundred seventy nine i was invited to his house he locked the doors and forced me to drink what i now know was alcohol. he asked me what i thought of his penis which was a wrecked then the priest made me perform oral sex on him. the catholic church in germany is facing
7:22 pm
a crisis attendances dropped significantly over the past few years according to the central committee of german catholics one hundred eighty thousand parishioners stopped going to mass in twenty ten alone many citing church hierarchy unwillingness to do enough about claims of abuse like the ones made by wilfred the priest at the center of this particular scandal is now being moved to a different parish while this church where its alleged abuses took place remains closed to worshippers but just how difficult is it to bring a criminal prosecution in cases like this if those people go to court now it's very difficult to get to a sentence because the witnesses sometimes died in between the memory has got lost and so those attempts to get to have a trial usually fail christine vi first had been in charge of an extensive study

into abuse in the german catholic church dating back as far as nineteen forty five his research claims that the church destroyed files on priests involved in abuse up to ten years also that twelve hundred victims were paid hush money not to reveal what happened to them he was dismissed after a dispute with senior clergy over what information would be made public the scandal that this research is no not going to be finished. it's causing problems to them as well now they're losing members because of the new headlines of the last few weeks there are those within the church that recognize the importance of transparency if lapsed catholics but to be brought back into the flock a woman been mia anything and when we do not make things clear there will always be enough that sized something has been covered up this will harm attempts to get people into church because it is a bad foundation for trust and old belief is based on trust and within

7:25 pm
heels of systematic targeting of syrian our bases by the syrian free army and the syrian opposition also i'd like to remind you that the syrian opposition has already thought to get the radar station on the edges of the golan heights last year so this comes as a continuation of the effort to. royd the syrian army by the opposition and now by the monsters themselves by the israelis so what we are witnessing now is a reflection of the political impasse that the syrian opposition as suffering from being unable to achieve anything significant on the ground they have resorted to help from the zionists directly i don't think that the israelis have a policy of making public comments of strikes be it assassinations or strikes
